This week has been pretty good! We met with a lot of members this week because the Ward is doing a 40 day fast and they're encouraged to feed us the day they fast. Fine by me! A highlight of the week was the general authority visit, Elder Stanfill of the 70 visited us. He's a really cool guy.

Half of the mission!

Representing Timpanogos High School in Pittsburgh!

I enjoy talking to all the kind people that are here in Pittsburgh. There is always some crazies that are entertaining. Roger, a homeless guy we talk to all the time told us a weird story about a troll and a guy who just likes money..idk but it was interesting. In general people are very kind to us. There's always the few who think they know what we believe and are completely wrong. But what can you do?

Alot of the days I'm super tired. Saturday was the worst/best day. A lady named Lindsay asked us to help move some furniture. She shows up with a full U-haul. Filled with furniture. A table and four chairs, two dressers, an entertainment center, two sofa type chairs, a big old TV, and one giant really heavy couch. This couch was at least 200 lbs. only Gille and I were there to help, oh and did I mention that she lives on the THIRD FLOOR? And this stair case was small and windy. It took us over a half hour to get that thing up there. Half way through I felt the symptoms of passing out so we had to take a break. At one point I was underneath the couch and thought if my muscles give in..I'll probably be crushed and die. But here I am, with only slight back soreness. That was one of the hardest things I've had to do In a half hour span.

Anyways this week was fun, try to share the gospel with someone this week. You can decide to change someone's life by getting out of your comfort zone and speaking up!
